The biggest win in the 450M department is the vast improvement in the SNR incoming to the AP.

I think cust density is important here.
A 450i will even get more subs than epmp ever thought due to protocol restrictions,processor and memory capacity.
A 450m is great if you have 60+ subs on one AP.

We have a site that has 3-4 fairly loaded ePMP 2K sectors (30 deg horns).  There are a large number of customers in a single 90 degrees.  While we could probably upgrade to ePMP 3K to get a bit of a boost, there is still a cost associated in replacing all the CPE to get the full benefit.  

At this point, we're trying to determine if something like 450M makes sense for this 90 degrees of coverage.  The cost is obviously much higher, but I think it may be a better solution in the long run. If we could find a spare 20Mhz, we could run both our existing ePMP radios and the 450M at the same time while we cut subscribers over.  

Are there other people here who have been in similar situations and have deployed 450M?  I realize the performance of the 450M is dependent upon CPE locations, but overall, were you happy with the boost in performance in general?  I feel like most people who have upgraded to 450M were already running 450, so you didn't really have to forklift all CPE.  If that were the case, I think it would be a no-brainer.

Interested in hearing any success (or failure) stories about people who have upgraded to 450M...
